One of the cool new features many sites mention is "Integrated Load Balancing" in Windows 8. It is supposed to do the following:

If you have multiple active network connections, Windows 8 will intelligently balance the network traffic between them for performance

I would love to see this feature in action. I am connected to a WiFi access point and to a different network by cable. Yet I don't see the operating system 'intelligently' balance the network load when for instance downloading multiple files. Is there any way to enable it or should I adjust my expectations?
